Bolivian student
dies in accident
Javier Antonio Garcia, 18, a
sophomore economics major
from Bolivia, was killed early
Friday morning in a two-car
accident near Hempstead.
Garcia was eastbound on
U.S. Highway 290 about three
miles east of Hempstead at 8:15
Friday morning when he appa
rently fell asleep at the wheel of
his car and veered into oncom
ing traffic, a spokesman for the
Department of Public Safety
said.
His car was struck head-on
by a car driven by a Houston
man, who the spokesman said
was not injured in the accident.
Garcia was pronounced dead
shortly after the accident by
Waller County Judge D.G.
Mooney. The body was taken to
a Hempstead funeral home,
awaiting transport to Bolivia.
Although Garcia listed Hon
duras as his home address, he
will be buried in Bolivia, Anne
Broumley, of the office of stu
dent affairs, said.
Silver Taps for Garcia will be
held on Feb. 2.

Battalion Reporter
The Texas A&M registrar’s
office is asking students to return
any 1981-82 University catalogs
not being used because its supply
is running low.
The office regularly hands out
catalogs to enrolled students as
well as prospective students. But
the office only has about two or
three cases — each containing 24
catalogs — remaining, said Linda
Busby, informational representa
tive for admissions and records.
Busby said many students lose

catalogs or throw them away and
come to the registrar’s office to
pick up replacements. However,
the registrar’s office needs cata
logs to pass out to students who
still need to plan schedules or who
are interested in enrolling in the
University, she said.
“We are asking students to keep
the 1981-82 catalogs they have, re
cycle them to a friend or bring
them to us — but not to throw
them away,” Busby said.
In anticipation of a greater de
mand, 75,000 catalogs were
ordered this year instead of the
70,000 ordered last year. Howev
er, the supply is still low and no
more 1981-82 catalogs will be
printed.
Catalogs also are needed for
mailing, Busby said. The number
of 1981-82 catalogs that will be
prepared for mailing is almost
twice the number of 1978-79 cata
logs prepared, she said.
Busby said graduate catalogs
are needed as well as undergradu
ate catalogs.
The 1982-83 undergraduate
catalogs will be available in Janu
ary and the graduate catalogs will
be available in early March.
Students who wish to donate
catalogs or pick up new ones may
do so at the main desk in Heaton
Hall. Campus offices wishing to
donate catalogs may send them by
campus mail or call Busby at 845-
8835 to arrange to have them pick
ed up.

Confidentiality in question
MSC Council to discuss fileT ej
By NANCY WEATHERLEY
confiden-
Battulion .Stuff
MSC Council members will re
consider a proposal for a student
personnel filing system tonight at
7:30 in 216T MSC.
The files would be a permanent
record of personal information on
MSC Council and Directorate
members and would include infor
mation such as ID number and
perhaps sex and race, which some
members opposed.
Council President Doug Dede-
ker said the system would help the
MSC Council and Directorate
evaluate its effectiveness as a col
lege union. By looking at the files,
council members could see how
individuals involved in the MSC
have progressed within the orga
nization and what benefits these
individuals have gained from their
participation.
Council members, however,
sent the proposal back to commit
tee earlier in the semester after
questions concerning
tiality arose.
Dedeker said ID numbers
would be necessary because the
Council is required to do grade
checks on members. ID numbers
are used to obtain this informa
tion.
Also, he said, the system would
serve as a record of former mem
bers who might make donations to
MSC Council and Directorate
structuring, members were over
burdened, with not enough time
to accomplish everything they
were required to do.
'This year, members have re
evaluated the effectiveness of the
new program and in the spring,
Dedeker said, they will finish the
process of reorganizing the Coun
cil and directorate by revising the
constitution.
